Who Shot Down MH-17? Paul Craig Roberts

The available evidence convinces me that the
Malaysian airliner shot down over Ukraine was a plot hatched in Washington in
order to blame Russia, blame which helps Washington’s pressure on Europe for
sanctions against Russia. An alternative explanation is that Washington’s
stooge government in Kiev in an assassination attempt against Vladimir Putin
mistook the Malaysian airliner for Putin’s airplane.

The circumstantial evidence in favor of the
former explanation is that the Western media was primed and ready to go with
stories blaming Russia the minute the news broke that the airliner had been
downed. No evidence was available, but the Western media was uniform in
accusations against Russia and “Russian-supported separatists.”
